I chose Costco because it's the one my parents frequented the most when I was a kid. I always used to get a VHS whenever we went (when I was well-behaved that is ). I also loved the free food samples, LOL.

I prefer Costco....when you buy a product that ends up not working they take it back and don't make me go through the company that made it I believe only computers & Big screen TV's are exempt from this.

In addition they treat their employees well

Costco has the best free samples . BJ's does not have any, at least around here.

I like Costco, but it's always so crowded and the check out lines are so long that I hate to go there and always go to Sam's Club instead.

Like my favorite philosopher, Yogi Berra said: Nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded.

One thing I like about COSTCO is they have a reputation of treatingtheir employees well.

Having never shopped at "BJ's", I can't compare them to the others.

We actually shop both Costco and Sams Club. They have different products we like - Sam's here seems to have a much better selection of outdoor products from BBQ's, to furniture, to lighting than does Costco.

On the other hand, we love Costco meats -

Toss up to us

I wish that we had a Sam's Club nearby, but we don't.
